Japanese Mascots Bring Laughter and Culture to J-Pop Summit 2015

Japanese mascot Ossan returns to the U.S just a few weeks after his American debut at Anime Expo. This time around, he’s bringing fellow “Go-Torch” (or “Yuru-Kyara”) characters Sanasenabona (idols from Sasebo) and Koakkuma & Akkuma (twin bears from Hokkaido) to San Francisco’s J-Pop Summit on August 8 and 9.

The mascots will perform both days of the event on the Fort Mason Stage and spend the weekend entertaining attendees around the festival. Show information at http://www.j-pop.com.
